[Bug 1299741] Re: Shadows shouldn't wrap around to other workspaces/monitors

 

Hello Adam, or anyone else affected,

Accepted unity into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/7.2.4+14.04.20141217-0ubuntu1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Window shadows can be seen on adjacent workspaces.

  [ Test Case ]

  To reproduce, launch a whole bunch (10, 20, a lot) of windows on
  workspace 2, and position them on or near the right edge.  Then switch
  to workspace 1, and observe the massive black blob on the left of the
  screen.

  [ Regression Potential ]

  Any code change to the Unity desktop shell could potentially introduce
  a new crash or lockup.

  [ Other Info ]

  The SRU fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry-picked from Ubuntu 14.10
  where it has been in production use for some time without apparent
  regression.
